Appreciate: An appreciation

When I told my mother I forgave her she said, her voice quiet and weak, "I appreciate that."

Her reply seemed curious to me, so politely archaic. Removed, maybe.

But now that I'm back home I find myself echoing her when someone offers a hug or other comforts.

"I appreciate that."

Maybe I always used that phrase but now when the words come out of my mouth I hear her voice, with its deep Southern accent and its unfailing commitment to genteel manners.
